The functions of management uniquely describe managers' jobs. The most commonly cited functions of management are planning, organizing, leading, and controlling, although some identify additional functions. The functions of management define the process of management as distinct from accounting, finance, marketing, and other business functions.

Management in all business and organizational activities is the act of getting people together to accomplish desired goals and objectives using available resources efficiently and effectively. Management comprises planning, organizing, staffing, leading or directing, and controlling an organization (a group of one or more people or entities) or effort for the purpose of accomplishing a goal.

For the smooth functioning of any organization, the functions are planning, organizing, leading and controlling. These functions are referred to as the management process.

Jisna said...

The three Functions are:
1. PLANNING

Drawing up plans of actions that combine unity, continuity, flexibility and precision given the organisation's resources, type and significance of work and future trends.

2.ORGANISING

providing capital, personnel and raw materials for the day-to-day running of the business, and building a structure to match the work. Organisational structure depends entirely on the number of employees

3. COMMANDING

Successful managers have personal integrity, communicate clearly and base their judgments on regular audits. Their thorough knowledge of personnel creates unity, energy, initiative and loyalty and eliminates incompetence

There are four basic functions of management, viz., planning, organization, direction and control.
1. Planning Is the rational and orderly thinking about ways and means for the realization of certain goals.
2. Organization Provides the mechanism or apparatus for purposive, integrated and co-operative action by two or more persons with a view to implementing any plan.
3. Direction is largely a function of human relations and motivation
4. Control ensures qualitative and quantitative performance of work in the organization for completing plans and achieving objectives.

The functions of management can be stated as follows:
1) There should be proper planning.An individual with good managerial skills will firstly come out with a plan which should be followed.PLANNING can be said to be one of the most important function of management.

2) Another important function of management according to me is organising.Once the planning is done, organising the resources is required in oreder to execute the plan.

3)Then comes Direction.An individual with good managerial skill can direct the path of action under any kind of situation smoothly,hence leading them towards their goal.Therefore according to me direction forms an important function as well.

4)Another function worth a mention is controlling.This shows an individual's administrative skills.If he/she is good at this,definitely their plan will be executed in the desired way, thus leading them towards their desired goal.
